I offer individual consultation to mental health practitioners on all things related to building and maintain a private practice. Fee: $200 per 45-minute session.
Training Group
I offer a Modern Analytic training group with Pierre Choucroun, Ph.D., LPC-S, CGP on Wednesday mornings from 11:00am to 12:30pm.
What is a Training Group?
This group focuses on how to thrive in private practice and is open to all levels of experience. Topics of focus will include: building and maintaining a practice you love; expanding your emotional capacity; and enhancing your ability to work effectively with transference, aggression, desire, defenses, resistance, money, and your own feelings. You’ll develop a deeper understanding of yourself and how your history impacts your relationship with your practice.
The training group provides an opportunity to work hard with other dedicated clinicians and to develop a robust referral network. We’ve both experienced the impact that being part of a close professional community has on private practice. It provides both fuel and inspiration for the work, and we are excited to offer this opportunity to other clinicians.
How to Learn More
We’d love to talk to you about your interest in the group. Contact Pierre (512-947-1935) or Alyson (512-306-0072) for more information or to schedule a meeting. The fee for the group will be $70/week.
